Clip in Hair extensions

Nishika, on March 1, 2017 at 11:26 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 33

Hello!

I have PCOS and my hair has thinned out and I am considering getting clip in extensions for my wedding as I want a nice full hairstyle. (See photo of inspiration)

Has anyone had any experience using bellami hair extensions?

Or have any recommendations for another brand?

Thank you!

    I don't have any specific suggestions as far as hair extensions, but I do recommend doing a trial run for whatever you decide to do. Make sure you do it in the morning and wear it all day to see how it would hold up. You don't want your hair falling out during dancing at your reception! Smiley smile

    Thank you! Yes I plan on using them for my trial. Excellent point about them falling out while dancing! I'd hate for that to happen!

    I just recently got Luxies-- I haven't styled them or anything yet but when I tried them on they seemed like really nice quality. They come with like 10 pieces and your hairdresser may only use a couple depending on the hairstyle, just to add some fullness

    I use Bellami! I know some people don't like them, but I've had absolutely no complaints. I haven't done an up do with them, but I do wear the out for special occasions. I've had them for over a year (maybe 2?) and they still look the same. The clips really lock on to your natural hair, which is good, but your scalp might be a little sore at the end of the night.

    Here is a pic of me with Bellami extensions in (sorry for the poor quality, it's the only one I could find):

    I've heard good things about Bellami for long term use- they stay really nice. I used Remy clip in extensions for my wedding- bought them at Ulta. I was able to dye them to match my hair perfectly & they looked very natural. I had no complaints! My updo was somewhat similar to yours and they worked wonderfully, and weren't too expensive.

    So do you get hair extensions through your hair dresser? Or from somewhere else? I'm considering doing them for my wedding

    I have blue, SUPER fine hair. So extensions for me was a must. My stylist and I decide to get some bright blonde ones, dye the ends blue and the top of them brown to match my natural color. I am very happy with our results! In the picture you can tell the difference between my hair and the extensions because my hair was mega faded.

    I've used Bellami and Luxy extensions butI would stay away from Luxy. They matted terribly for me and the customer service was shit!

    @Miranda G. - I am going to order them online from Bellami. My stylist also suggested sally beauty but I like what I have read about Bellami.

    @nishika- Thank you so much. I'm going with another style for the big day, but these extensions were purchased at Sally's beauty supply. We went the cheap route sine I was going to dye them and have an updo. I think you get what you pay for with extensions. But always check reviews-- outside of the sellers website. Luxy filtered out my review and so no other buyers saw it!

    @erin Lee - good point! I never thought to do that. Off to do some non-work related research!

    @GreeneBunny - beautiful! They look great! Yes I have thin hair and it's grown in since I was diagnosed but I want a great updo for my wedding day. I can hardly make a ponytail!

    I have naturally thing hair and used the Remy extension from Sally's and they worked wonderfully. They can also be dyed to match your natural color.

    My stylist told me to get Remy clip-ins at Sally's. But she also said basically any brand is fine as long as they're real human hair.

    I got iziwig human hair extensions. I chose them because you get quite a bit of hair for the money. They stayed in place all night and looked great.
